Roy
the Zebra
Another
effective literacy website that I want to share is Roy the Zebra. If you want
to check out the site, you can click the link www.roythezebra.com. Roy the Zebra is a
website for age 5-7 and for readers who are falling behind their reading level.
This website is free to join. However, there is also website that is part of
this website, but you pay monthly fee to be a member which is called Club Roy,
the link is www.clubroy.com. Both websites
have the same goal to help emergent readers to be successful readers as well as
the ones who are behind their reading level.
Roy
the Zebra has excited guided stories, lesson plans, games, and songs for your
children. Everything is free but you need to sign up for the website to send
you occasional updates via email. The stories on Roy the Zebra started of with
an excitement beginning that will grasp the attention of children to focus more
on the reading. It motivates children and make them want to learn more about reading
and become successful readers. The games on the website are educational games that
will make reading fun. They will not be aware that while they are having fun with
the games, they are learning a lot.
Roy
the Zebra is an excellent site for children, teachers, and parents. The
resources that are available on the websites are free. There are also worksheets
that you can go through and choose the types of worksheet you like the most. Or
you think it fits what your lesson will be about. The worksheets can be used in
however a teachers or parents plan on using it. It can be for leisure time,
homework, classwork, or group work.
The
songs are fun for the kids to sing along, to dance with the music, and learn at
the same time. I bet this one is good for the kinesthetic learners and auditory
learners. Roy the Zebra make sure the resources that it provided are core
standards and they are appropriate for all types of learners. I would also recommend
this website to parents and teachers to visit and sign up to gain more for the
sake of our children literacy to be successful in the future.
